Change

Weds. night David taught on change. I have really been thinking hard about that and what and how I can change my lil corner of the world.
In my lil corner I know the people I come in contact with all have problems and I feel like I really just need to spend more time lifting them up in prayer. I love people and I love helping them. I know God has placed me where I am at for a reason, I need to keep on with the task he has revealed to me.
That's really all I have to say about that...

Bleh

So I decided to write a blog about what's bugging me at the moment. I have a friend at school who does that and he says it makes him feel better, so here we go...

I have a midterm paper due friday and I am just now starting it. I have gotten so much better about not procrastinating but for whatever reason decided to do that right now. It makes me frustrated at myslef for thinking it was ok. I guess i just assumed that the essay would be easier than this. So now I am def feeling the stress coming on and I am tired and just..... AHHH!!

Another thing is the nine weeks ends next week and I am unsure of how and where I stand on some classes. I am a junior as most people know, and I already feel like just slacking off. I have been in school for 12 years, the lowest grade I have ever gotten is a C+ which I brought way up by the following report card, and i don't say that to brag but just to paint you a picture of how hard I have had to work to keep getting a's and b's. I have people all around me tell me grades aren't everything, but having a high g.p.a helps you get noticed by colleges. And that brings me to my next complaint.... I have not a clue on what I want to major in or what college I want to go to. I am like most people I like to have some idea or plan to how my life goes. Some people have told me not to worry about that mess that I will change anyways but I want to know. I have talked to a lot of my friends and they say they don't feel happy or certain about most things in their life right now and i feel like i get closer to joining that team eveyday you know.

UGH!!! This mess has me so STRESSED right now...... Sorry about this blog, I hate complaining to people because I know what it's like to have to people go on and on about what's bugging them. Well hopefully in a couple weeks I can write another blog about how well my paper was... Until then...........

Mountain Trip

The day after Christmas we went to Valdosta Ga. to Wild Adventures to use our year pass and see the "Festival Of Lights" Now when I think of festival of lights I am thinking about like Walt Disney World light show. This was very wimpy, I could have done a way better show but whatev... It was still kinda fun though. We went to the Live Nativity Show and the angel that came up had a super thick georgia accent which I thought was great, "And behold an angel of the Lord..." (Say it with an accent it makes it even better)
From there we went to Macon Bacon Ga. to spend the night. From there we headed to Dilliard Ga.
The campground we stayed at was amazing. If you aren't a camper you won't appreciate this but, the water pressure was amazing for a campground!! We drove up to Franklin, NC to see my grandmarie and grandpaken. After our little visit we ate at the famous Dillard House. They have amazing potatoes there just saying.
Have you ever heard of Maggie Valley NC?? Me either until we went there. We drove over to Tennessee while in the neighborhood one day. Monday we went skiing!!! I had never been before. I fell at least a million times. When we got home I had actual snow burn from one of the times i fell down most of the slope. Needless to say when I woke up Tuesday I was super sore. Muscles I didn't even know I had hurt!! I can't wait to go again. Tuesday we went to the Biltmore Estate. That place is amazing I can't imagine growing up in a place that big!! It even had a bowling alley in it. It was old skool like real old skool but cool nonetheless. Wedensday we went back to Franklin.
When I was younger we use to go on hikes all the time!! My dad decided we should go on a really difficult hike to see some waterfalls. It was 35 degrees and by the time we were done we all stripped down to jeans and t-shirts, it was one of those hikes.
Today we headed home... I am glad to be home but sad the trip is over.
